A numerical controller instructs a robot or an automated machine (external device), in relation to a main task for which a retrying operation thereof has occurred, to execute, instead of or in addition to the main task, a sorting task to distinguish an exception molded product, which was produced from a time when a determination result became successful, and until a physical quantity to be measured lies within a management range, or until a stand-by time elapses, from a normal molded product produced before the occurrence of the retrying operation.
